"It was beneficial discussing how to complete a more comprehensive analysis and also incorporate different elements of treatment within a treatment session. Great topic - very relevant to most SLP's caseloads. I liked the concrete examples and the opportunity to practice analyzing a speech sample - very helpful." R.J. (Jul. 2024)

"The use of books to supplement therapy goal mastery was helpful. I liked the list of references." A.C. (Jun. 2024)

"All of the information was helpful, really! Most important is completing an "Independent Analysis" of the different subsystems of the phonological system. I really liked her walking us through the steps of an Independent Analysis and how it can be used to set up our approach to therapy as well as our goals for therapy." D.R. (Jun. 2024)

"I appreciated the step-by-step instructions on how to complete the comprehensive analysis and ideas for how to target goals in therapy, including examples of specific materials and activities." B.H. (Apr. 2024)

"All was beneficial. I liked the providing of a case study to implement what was learned in the course." B.T. (Feb. 2024)

"Informal assessment was helpful. I liked that the course was self-paced." H.B. (Jan. 2024)

"I liked the clear description of a comprehensive speech assessment with students with highly unintelligible speech. The case study was helpful." M.M. (Dec. 2023)

"Discussing phonemic awareness was helpful. I liked that the content was relatable." M.D. (Dec. 2023)

"Loved the books and scoring sheets for assessment. I can apply this to many children with phonological disorders. Excellent examples to evaluate and therapy tools." A.C. (Nov. 2023)

"The use of the comprehensive assessment to analyze the patterns within a child's speech was helpful. I appreciated the hands-on approach to completing the assessment as well as the resources available." E.M. (Nov. 2023)

"This course was very relevant to my everyday practice. I liked the case study." T.W. (Sep. 2023)

"I found this course very practical and will be using the ideas and documents in my daily practice. I found the breakdown of independent analysis with the accompanying documents very helpful. I will be using those documents to conduct independent analyses. They will be useful for analyzing the speech of more severely disordered students." C.W. (Aug. 2023)

"I liked the form for analysis of speech patterns and focus on what the child has and uses rather than the errors." D.B. (Jul. 2023)

"The phonemic analysis will come in handy for my many articulation/phonological disorder kids." C.M. (Jun. 2023)

"I liked this different approach to assess and treat my severe phono kiddos. Self-paced, I liked that I could go back and review." N.B. (Jun. 2023)

"Most beneficial takeaway item was: To concern myself with getting students to increase phonemes produced as opposed to always focusing on an accurate production of just a few phonemes. What I liked best: This presentation allowed for practicing the methods discussed by the speaker." M.C. (Apr. 2023)

"The use of an assessment tool was beneficial. The practical application was very concrete." D.G. (Mar. 2023)

"I liked the specific details on completion of a comprehensive analysis." C.W. (Mar. 2023)

"I liked the assessment." S.L. (Mar. 2023)

"I liked the assessment portion and the therapy ideas." K.G. (Dec. 2022)

"The phonotactic and independent analyses was beneficial. And I liked the convenience of this course." J.L. (Dec 2022)

"I liked that the course is self-paced." M.F. (Nov. 2022)

"Comprehensive approach. I liked the hands on practice." S.W. (Oct. 2022)

"Very easy to follow course. I liked the breakdown of the explanation of how to do a Functional Analysis. I liked how course was presented in order of what steps to take to achieve what you want to do with the child in therapy." R.M. (Oct. 2022)

"I agree that this type of assessment and therapy will build intelligible language faster than traditional articulation therapy." C.E. (Sept. 2022)

"I liked the on-demand nature of this course." C.R. (Sept. 2022)

"The assessment portion was very beneficial." M.A. (July 2022)

"Liked the practicality of the information and the analysis portion." L.D. (July 2022)

"Assessing and analyzing phonology cases was beneficial. I liked the recommendation of testing and therapy tasks." R.K. (May 2022)

"I liked the hands on practice." C.H. (Mar. 2022)

"Practicing w/ the speech sample provided - I liked the hands on examples." R.S. (Mar. 2022)

"I liked the syllable shapes and homonymy." C.G. (Mar. 2022)

"Practical information to use in therapy sessions – how to complete an independent analysis." S.C. (Feb. 2022)

"I liked the step by step method for analyzing the sound system of the student. Well-paced lecture with a chance to stop and try the methods the presenter was talking about." K.N. (Feb. 2022)

"The understanding between traditional and independent analysis was very helpful in viewing what is best for our most unintelligible children. Considering the comprehensive evaluation to include phonemic inventory, phonotactic profile, and phonologic processes along with a traditional approach opens the door for more complete programming." A.H. (Feb. 2022)

"This approach brings greater consideration for the child as we see insurance plans restrict service delivery. 'Putting it all together' was very helpful for the application of concepts being presented in this course. I appreciated the 'hands-on' use of the forms to organize the assessment." A.H. (Jan. 2022)

"The presenter was very knowledgeable! This course gave a whole new way to think about speech sound disorders!" G.H. (Jan. 2022)

"This course provided a different way to look at evaluating a sound system. Right now, I have a little one that appears to understand and use a variety of language, but so many of her utterances are only CV. This course gave me a different way to think about adding word forms. The forms provided will be a great tool." S.Q. (Jan. 2022)
